Travis Wall is in his fourth season as the head men's soccer coach at St. Olaf in 2022-23. He was hired as St. Olaf's eighth head men's soccer coach on Dec. 18, 2018.

During his time at St. Olaf, Wall has led the Oles to a 43-18-3 (.695) record, including a 22-7-1 (.750) mark in the Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference. The Oles have appeared in the "Sweet 16" of the NCAA Tournament in each of the last two seasons, making the program one of just five NCAA Division III men's soccer programs in the country to accomplish that feat. Wall also guided St. Olaf to the 2021 MIAC regular-season title and the 2022 MIAC Playoffs title.

In 2022, St. Olaf advanced to the "Sweet 16" for the second-straight season after defeating Lake Forest College and No. 10 North Central College (Ill.) in the opening rounds before falling in a shootout. As the No. 2 seed in the MIAC Playoffs, the Oles blanked Bethel University, 3-0, in the semifinals before claiming their third tournament title with a 2-1 come-from-behind victory at top-seeded and fifth-ranked Gustavus Adolphus College behind Robi Buzakovic's second goal of the game with 1:01 remaining. St. Olaf finished the season 15-5-2 overall and 7-2-1 in conference play, with three of its five losses coming to top-10 opponents. The Oles also went 9-0-0 at home, winning all of their home games for the fourth time in program history (first since 1998). The 2022 team had four All-MIAC honorees - including the Offensive Player of the Year (Shea Bechtel) and the Rookie of the Year (Robi Buzakovic) - to go with one Honorable Mention All-MIAC selection, 14 Academic All-MIAC honorees, six College Sports Communicators (CSC) Academic All-District honorees, four United Soccer Coaches All-Region IX selections, one United Soccer Coaches All-American, one United Soccer Coaches Scholar All-Region honoree, and the program's first-ever United Soccer Coaches Scholar All-American.

In 2021, Wall led St. Olaf to arguably the most successful season in program history, as the Oles matched their deepest-ever run in the NCAA Tournament by advancing to the "Sweet 16." St. Olaf set a new single-season program record for wins in a season by finishing 19-3-1 and the 19 victories also were tied for the most of any team in the country in NCAA Division III. The Oles became just the fifth team in the history of the MIAC to go 10-0 in conference play on their way to winning the fourth outright (seventh overall) MIAC regular-season championship in program history. After leading St. Olaf to the historic season, Wall was named the MIAC Coach of the Year by his peers and he and assistant coaches Justin Oliver and Ben Braman were named the United Soccer Coaches NCAA Division III Region IX Coaching Staff of the Year at the end of the season.

St. Olaf tied the program's longest unbeaten streak with a 16-game streak where the Oles went 15-0-1 from Sept. 12 through Nov. 3, which included a record-tying 15-straight wins from Sept. 15 through Nov. 3. After not being ranked since 2015, the Oles spent six weeks in the United Soccer Coaches Top 25, peaking at No. 10 in the country twice, which was the program's highest ranking since 2011. St. Olaf concluded the season ranked No. 15, marking the joint-highest year-end ranking in program history in the poll. The Oles were also ranked in the D3soccer.com Top 25 in five-straight polls, wrapping up the season at No. 12.

For the first time in program history, St. Olaf had two United Soccer Coaches All-America honorees in the same season, as sophomore Victor Gaulmin was named to the first team and sophomore Hakeem Morgan earned a spot on the second team. The duo were two of only five sophomores nation-wide to be named All-Americans and made St. Olaf one of 11 programs in the country with multiple All-Americans. Gaulmin and Morgan were also two of four Oles to be United Soccer Coaches All-Region honorees and were two of the program's three first-team selections. St. Olaf also had a program record and conference-record-tying six All-MIAC honorees in 2021, including the league's Midfielder of the Year (Victor Gaulmin) and Rookie of the Year (Shea Bechtel).

In his first season on the Hill, Wall led the Oles to their first appearance in the MIAC Playoffs since 2015, as St. Olaf finished 9-10 overall and 5-5 in the MIAC. Under his guidance, St. Olaf had five student-athletes earn All-MIAC or Honorable Mention All-MIAC honors, which was the highest total for the program since 1993. The Oles were picked eighth in the MIAC Preseason Coaches' Poll but defeated three teams picked ahead of them to return to the MIAC Playoffs and post the program's highest win total and MIAC win total since 2015.

After the COVID-19 pandemic wiped out the fall 2020 season, St. Olaf played eight exhibition contests in the spring of 2021 and St. Olaf went 4-2-2 in those eight games with wins over Augsburg, Bethel, St. Thomas, and Concordia-Moorhead.

Paris Royo

Parent

I brought my son to this camp not really knowing what to expect and was concerned about how young he was for the camp, since it appears designed around high school level players. I was surprised by the in-depth amount of information that EXACT provided us regarding how to prepare for the college recruitment process. Without a doubt, we would have missed out on the opportunity to know how the process works and the information you provided was insightful and we have confidence moving forward as our son moves into high school and college beyond.

Great job and we look forward to attending more EXACT camps, as well as introduce my younger son to the camps when the time is right. Thank you!

Michael Battisti

Player

I loved the style of training and playing at the camp. They were open to changes with certain age restrictions and skill differences (as I am one of the younger athletes). Also, I loved how we were able to meet each coach privately, as well as during training. Lastly, the elevator pitch practice was unique and beneficial as it prepares me for the future.

Justin Gross

Player

I went to the first ID Camp in Philly. We were so encouraged that we attended this one in DC. I have always dreamed about 1) going to college and 2) playing soccer in college. I got to meet a lot of great coaches and athletes. I learned something new at each camp. I wish there were more camps close to me so we could attend more. I am a senior and need all the help I can get in hopes to find the right college. I loved how the coaches were there to help us and give us directions on the spot. My mentor Coach was Mike Eckberg. Towson is on my "dream" list - and we are now going to schedule a visit as he suggested. I am so excited and I know I still have a long road ahead, but every journey has a beginning. Even though I am getting started a little late, I feel like EXACT really has helped me come flying out of the gate!

Parker McDonald

Player

I had an amazing experience at EXACT Camp. I enjoyed the opportunity to talk face-to-face with so many coaches from around the country. I also enjoyed the opportunity to train with new coaches. I am looking forward to visiting coaches that I met at their schools and getting to take a closer look at their programs. It was also cool to meet so many fellow athletes from other places and make new friends. Thank you so much for everything!! Thank you!!!

Sean O'Callaghan

Player

This is the first ID Camp that I have attended and it was a positive experience in every way. The camp was very well organized leading up to the camp with very informative emails and preparation work for the camp. On the day of the camp, registration was well organized and the EXACT team was there to help for every step of the way. Chris was an excellent leader and motivated me from the very beginning. It was amazing to be exposed to real college coaches and to be coached both on and off the field. Getting feedback on the day was very rewarding. I am looking forward to attending EXACT Soccer Academic 50 ID Camp in June/July.

Joe Moore

Parent

I attended the camp with my son. The information that the EXACT personnel provided was excellent. We are now much more informed regarding the college recruiting and scholarship qualification's. The coaches that mentored the boys were also very knowledgeable, devoted, and fun. The rating that was provided after the camp was very helpful to help guide my son with his future training. The camp helped to boost my son's confidence and love for the game. I cannot say enough about the camp. You guys are the best ! Thanks for your efforts!

Jacob Nelson

EXACT Sports Camp is a key component to being recruited as an athlete. The camp provides you with an opportunity to meet, interact, and train with college coaches from different schools around the nation from different levels. EXACT Sports provides you with insights into improving your chance of being seen and recruited by college coaches. It was one of the best decisions I made in my recruiting process.

Gretchen Knoblock

Parent

The numerous pieces of advice for student athletes was really good. This camp was a confidence builder for my son, and also empowering. Thanks for a well organized and educational camp.

Chris Wraback

Player

Through this one day camp, EXACT Soccer has made me realize that my dream is so possible to reach. It's the only camp I've been to, but I was able to meet so many new people who share the same passion as me. I also learned how to elevate my recruiting game to reach my goal much easier.

Brenden Bryan

Player

This was a wonderful opportunity to meet coaches and other players in a completely different format. There is a chance to show individual skills that may not be seen in a regular soccer tournament environment. The interaction with coaches is outstanding and I really feel that I was able to get exposure from EXACT that I would not have anywhere else. Thanks for a great session and options to see so many coaches. I can't wait to see where this opportunity leads me!

Isaac Walker

Player

The best part about the Exact ID camp was the ability to have one-on-one conversation with 30+ college soccer coaches from all over the United States. These coaches were not only from different part of the country, but also coaches at different levels. They say a big part of getting recruited is building relationships with the coaches, and I believe this was a great way to get started! This camp gave us, athletes, the opportunity to learn the basics of college recruiting, the qualities the coaches looking for in a player, and overall get great tips from them.

Benjamin Sumners

Player

I was surprised to see so many coaches, and having them available to talk to. I wish I would have known about EXACT Sports Elite Camp my junior year. I left feeling like I had personal attention from coaches, and got a better grip on how to navigate the college sports recruitment process.

Great experience meeting coaches, and having the discussion panel with coaches and parents. The games were fun and challenging, which I really enjoyed. Thanks EXACT!

Ethan Koopman

Parent

The information shared throughout the camp was priceless. EXACT Sports and the coaches were so approachable and willing to share all and any knowledge to the athletes and the parents. (line break) Our son is entering 10th grade and we were not aware of any such camps. He attended a showcase with the HS JV team last summer, but they did not share any information. He attended a college sponsored team camp the week before the EXACT Camp and there were only 5 college coaches that attended that camp. We were so happy with the EXACT's structure and all the opportunities that they give the athletes and parents to ask questions. We will attend another camp before our son graduates HS. Thank you!
